Well done. Very clean and simple mods to get you out for a weekend or do some touring! I have the same model running the v6 and couldn’t be more happier with it. Reliable and plenty of grunt !
Literally best build I’ve come across. I’m here in the states and really wanting to pull the trigger on a GX470 If I had the skill and patience I’d spec it out just like your rig. Thanks for the inspiration man!
mate, one of the cleanest builds I've ever seen. Very nice work. If you haven't already add a rubber plug to your air compressor outlet on your bullbar so you don't get water in there.
Thanks mate - Yeah I ended up moving my compressor to inside the car in the boot so not so much dust gets into it and its cooler in there, I have an outlet at the back now rather than the front
Having just bought a Prado with plans to get out and about this has been a fantastic video to kick me off, well done, great ideas from front to rear and everything in between 👍👍👍
VERY WELL EXPLAINED AND SUPER TIDY,,THX FOR TAKING TIME IN MAKING THIS VID AS I JUST PURCHASED A PRADO 2007 AND WAS LOOKING FOR IDEAS ON HOW TOO,,I AM GOING TO BUILD A REPLICA OF YOUR SETUP,,,MUCH APPRECIATED,,MANY THX
@@rt-ks2bh it was a full size cargo barrier, it was actually to suit a mitsubishi van I got it for free and just cut it and bolted the bottom to the top of the drawers. That way it left room for the water bladder between it and the seats.
Great build! I don't even have a Prado but yours is pretty much what I dream of doing in the future. For the next videos please consider asking a friend about doing the camera work so you don't have to do everything with just one hand!
Great setup my Prado 120 is the same you gave me some good ideas, as for the bull bar I used the Toyota one and had a Toyota cradle added, had fitted a Carbon 12000lb winch, thanks for the walk around
Hey mate, any chance you could give us an in-depth explanation of how you built that table on your rear door. i Understand its been a long time since, but dying to know cause it looks amazing. cheers!
Thanks mate - yeah probably I'll do an update video of some sort, I have added a lift kit and winch and a bash plate and some other small changes since this video. Just subscribe i suppose and you'll see when I end up making more.
What an awesome build! In the off chance that you see this 4 years later: Do you ever have issues with rain leaking in through the door seals where you have run wires from the roof and into the car?
Nope, never had any water come in there. I have since re-wired those and ran the wires just to look more tidy. I now have them come out of the left tail light and up to the roof there.
@chapelle121 mate love your rig setup. Thanks for your generosity with answering everyone’s questions. I have a 2008 un-modded Prado D4D and want to go in this direction but was a bit stuck even knowing what’s possible. The way you engineered some of those solutions was inspiring. Thanks mate, subbed!
Wow, what an awesome setup! Very, very impressive. How did you mount the fire extinguisher - is the bracket drilled into the step by the rear seat? Great solution to get it out of the way. Love the removable divider and shelf idea too. Thank you
Hi mate, yes - 1 hole is drilled and just a nut on the back of the plastic, and then got 1 longer bolt of the same thread to go into the original threaded car body mounting hole.
Hey mate, there is a rubber bung just under the carpet near the rear left tail light area (near the jack compartment) . If you look under the car you will see it. Drill a hole through and poke the hose through
Hey mate, amazing set up, thanks for the video. Was just wondering if you purchased the rear door table set up or if it's DIY. If you purchased I'd be interested to know from who please. Cheers
Mate… that’s a setup to be very proud of ! 👌🏻 Maybe a dumb question but have you done something to make your kings air compressor stop when it pressures up ? I have one but I don’t think it stops like that at a high pressure. Maybe it does 🤷♂️
If its a kings thumper max dual compressor, it should have an inbuilt pressure switch, you don't have to do anything it just cuts out when it reaches a certain pressure, which if your trigger is closed and it's not leaking anywhere it should reach that pressure very quickly and just cut out until you open the trigger or whatever again which will turn it back on.
@@chappelle121 Could you advice how tall they are including the bracket as have an ARB roof rack and would like to position it in the same location, I have a gap of 70mm from the roof to the bottom of the roof rack rail
Hi mate, thanks ! I don't have plans unfortunately, that one was all just off the cuff figuring it as I go. Basically just got a bit of wood for the divider and cut it in a shape that would work combined with the angle off the cargo barrier, couple hinges and carpet and its done! the shelf was the same deal, just got some wood and carpet and cut to fit in the space
I have another video showing that a bit more, check my channel and you should find it. I did actually since move the compressor into the boot as it still sometimes got too hot
Its basically a heavy duty ratchet strap wrapped around the Tyre - I used a product from Bunnings called "Grunt E-track Fixing Plate" which has cut outs for a strap to fit though. so that is basically strapped that to the spare Tyre, then i bolted an oz trail holder to that plate with another little flat bar to make it more sturdy.
its just black melamine wood from the hardware store, cut to size, couple hinges, couple screws and the metal wire to hold it up. if you want like i did some carpet on the bottom is nice too. Everyhing you need can be got at bunnings (if you are in australia)
Thanks mate appreciate it. Looked online after I commented and they only make the carbon fibre trims for left hand drive. Assumed you wrapped. Looks great mate. Just started setting mine up now 🙂
Hey a bit late to the party, but nice set up! I just bought this exact model and wondering how your rear door handles the extra weight? I've only got the spare and standard tools on the inside panel and I feel the door is struggling with the weight!?

Hey like your set up. Wanting to put a shelf and divider like yours in my Toyota prado 2018 150. Just wondering what thickness wood did you use? Also how exactly did you attached it to handles. I can see the O bolts on the actual shelf but could t quite see how it attaches to the handle up top
It was so long ago i don't remember to be honest, wood i would guess around 18mm. Attached to the handles by getting some threaded eye bolts that goes into the same thread as the handles. then another eye bolt on the shelf, and then a turnbuckle that goes between those eye bolts. and back the back just bolted to the cargo barrier.
There are a few ways to do it, but I ran them out of the door seals, if you look at 2 minute mark you see the wires coming out of the top of the doors up to the roof.
Hey Chappelle121, just wondering where you got the side door decal stickers from? Love them and was hoping to get my hands on a pair :) Awesome setup btw!
I got them off ebay from a seller called "mycarslook" they have it advertised as a navara sticker and i just asked them to change the navara logo to what i wanted
Its a Milford cargo barrier, it was actually for a Mitsubishi van (i got it for free) and i modified it to work for me. Worked well because i just bolted it to the top of the drawers then i had room behind the seats for the water bladder where as normally a cargo barrier would bolt to the floor and take up that room.
This is one of the neatest, organised, practical and well thought out setups I’ve seen. Well done mate, great vid
indeed

Beautiful rig hope to have mine like this one day
Wow. Super job. This is the way I would like to have mine. Great!
Nice setup. All you still need is some seat covers
jealous, we need that tailgate here in the states.

Clever mod on the air compressor, might have to steal that idea.
looks good mate, you have put a lot of work into it.
More vids to come? Keen to see this in action, great build.

@@malkitr Face of the light bar is ~82mm, add on the bracket and that's even more, so this one probably won't fit for you in the same way I have mine.
@@chappelle121 Thanks for confirming will need to attach some brackets to the Tube bar then install.
This is a ripper rig mate! Any chance you’d be open to sharing your plans for how you built the shelf & divider? Just top notch work 👌🏻
Hi mate, thanks ! I don't have plans unfortunately, that one was all just off the cuff figuring it as I go.
Basically just got a bit of wood for the divider and cut it in a shape that would work combined with the angle off the cargo barrier, couple hinges and carpet and its done!

More details on how you mounted the air compressor? And the fan mod..
I have another video showing that a bit more, check my channel and you should find it.
I did actually since move the compressor into the boot as it still sometimes got too hot
chappelle121 did you mount it or just loose in the back?
@@AstroBananna mounted on top of my drawers left of the fridge and table
awesome mate, neat set up and like how u deal with the compressor

Awesome rig mate. Where did you get the light switches from?

Like your tab mate! Great work.
Looks really good. Can you please detail how did you make the gas bottle holder. Thanks
Its basically a heavy duty ratchet strap wrapped around the Tyre - I used a product from Bunnings called "Grunt E-track Fixing Plate" which has cut outs for a strap to fit though. so that is basically strapped that to the spare Tyre, then i bolted an oz trail holder to that plate with another little flat bar to make it more sturdy.

Hey mate, great setup! Looking at getting the ARB bullbar for mine, just wondering if that's the millennium grey you have or a black one
It is just black powder coat, but also it's not an ARB bar

Awesome set up
Am wondering what you used to make the back door table? looks real nice!

Awesome .. love it. are you gonna get a roof tent fitted at some stage?
Probably not on this car. I am quite happy with my swag setup.
Good looking 4runner errr padro
Where did you get the carbon fibre trims for the interior. I just got mine and the trims have seen better days. Looking at making it as neat as yours
